Let's divide 261117 by 88
Let's see how many times 88 fits into 261117.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 88

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 26 by 88, we get 0 with a remainder of 26.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 0 from 26.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 261 / 88

On to step 3:
When dividing 261 by 88, we get 2 with a remainder of 85.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 176 from 261, we get 85.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 85, then carry on: 851 / 88

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 851 by 88, we get 9 with a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 29.0
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 792 from 851.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 591 / 88

Moving on to step 5:
88 can be fit into 591 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 63.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 296.0
Subtracting 528 from 591 leaves us with 63.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 63, then repeat: 637 / 88

On to step 6:
When dividing 637 by 88, we get 7 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2967.0
If we subtract 616 from 637, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
210 divided by 88 is 2 with a remainder of 34.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2967.2
If we take 176 away from 210, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
88 goes into 340 3 times with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2967.23
Subtracting 264 from 340 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 88 fits into 760 8 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2967.238
If we subtract 704 from 760, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 560 by 88, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2967.2386
If we take 528 away from 560, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 11:
88 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2967.23863
Subtracting 264 from 320 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 560 by 88, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2967.238636
If we take 528 away from 560, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
88 can be fit into 320 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2967.2386363
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 264 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
88 goes into 560 6 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2967.23863636
If we subtract 528 from 560, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2967.23863636 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
